A dedicated servant of the people, bringing a wealth of experience from the business world to his candidacy for U.S. Congress. His commitment to conservative values and a strong vision for America's future drives his campaign.
John Hearton has been living the American Dream since he started working and paying taxes at the age of 13. His journey began with AlliedSignal Technical Services Corporation, now Honeywell, where he worked under Larry Bossidy, a Jack Welch Protégé. John became the youngest Director in AlliedSignal’s history before venturing into entrepreneurship.
In 1998, John founded WareOnEarth Communications, a top 10 company in Cyber Security services for the Department of Defense by 2007. After selling the company in 2009, he served as Chief Technology Officer for Secure Mission Solutions, which he later sold to Parsons in 2014. John then took over as President of MANDEX, growing the business by 350% in three years. Currently, he is the President and CEO of
GeoWireless, developing world-class communications services for government and commercial programs.
John is actively involved in technology councils and advisory panels and has written standards for Cloud Computing and papers on Internet security. He advises the Department of Defense, healthcare, and banking communities on technologies like Quantum and Cloud Computing.
As a Conservative candidate, John’s vision for America is rooted in respect for our founding principles. He emphasizes common sense, business sense, accountability, and responsibility. His America First views include a strong commitment to the Constitution, States' Rights, border protection, and Fiscal Responsibility. A devoted Christian, John prioritizes God, Country, and Florida.
John is not a politician but a servant of the people and God. He brings a fresh perspective to Congress, free from the backdoor deals and insider trading. With a background in business, he understands the importance of hard work and collaboration. John facilitated communication and collaboration during his career, including linking the Hawaiian Islands with undersea fiber, saving taxpayers millions of dollars.
John's industry leadership helped establish critical partnerships, such as the first-ever Memorandum of Agreement between the Department of Defense and the Drug Enforcement Agency. His efforts have supported border security and the prosecution of drug traffickers, reinforcing his belief in strong, defended borders.
John has a vested interest in the military, inspired by his son Jack, a Marine, and his son-in-law Colin, who serves in the Army. He advocates for the best technology, medical care, and education for our military.
Driven by a calling from God to make the country a better place, John aims to reduce government size, strengthen borders, support law enforcement, and foster small business growth. He is committed to ending corruption and tyranny, preserving our way of life, and ensuring a bright future for our children.
